Why can’t I delete some videos from my iPhone?

It is likely because you do not have the necessary access levels to delete the video from your iPhone. This is a security feature that is designed to prevent accidental deletion of important content.

If the video is from an app, you might not be able to delete it from your device. Additionally, you may be unable to delete your own videos if the app does not allow for it or if the video is associated with an account that can’t be deleted, such as Apple Music or iCloud.

Additionally, if the video is a part of an album or an ongoing project, it may only be possible to delete it through the specific application associated with the video.

Why won’t my iPad let me delete videos?

There could be a few reasons as to why your iPad may not let you delete videos.

The first reason could be that the video was purchased directly from the iTunes Store or rented from iTunes and if so, those videos cannot be deleted. When you buy videos from the iTunes Store, you can download it to all of your Apple devices, but the video cannot be deleted.

If you rented the video from the iTunes Store, you can watch it as many times as you like within a limited time period and after that, you cannot delete the video.

Another reason may be that you don’t have the appropriate permissions to delete the video. To delete a video, you need the privileges of an administrator or user with appropriate access rights. If the user privilege is set to “read-only” then the user cannot delete the video or any other content.

Lastly, it may be that the file you’re trying to delete is a system file and can’t be deleted. System files have special permissions that don’t allow them to be deleted. You can check if the video file is a system file by navigating to the “Details” tab under the video’s properties.

If it is indicated to be a system file, then the file cannot be deleted.

Hopefully, this helps you determine why your iPad does not let you delete videos.

Where are movies stored on the iPhone?

How can I move videos from iPhone to computer?

There are several ways to transfer videos from your iPhone to your computer.

The easiest and most efficient way is to use Apple’s iCloud Drive. If you have an iCloud account with enough space, you can easily transfer your videos by simply backing them up in your iCloud Drive.

To do this, go to Settings, select your name at the top, then select “iCloud”. Next, select “iCloud Drive” and enable the “iCloud Drive” feature. Once enabled, you can access your videos and move them to the iCloud Drive.

Once you have them saved to the iCloud Drive, you can access them from any computer or other device with the iCloud app installed.

Another way to transfer videos from your iPhone to your computer is to use a USB or Lightning cable. This method requires a USB port on your computer. Connect your iPhone to your computer using the USB or Lightning cable then launch iPhoto, PhotoBooth, or Finder on your Mac or Windows on a PC.

Your device should show up in the file explorer and open the photos and videos. Select the videos you want to transfer and click “Import” to transfer them to your computer.

Finally, you can also use a third-party app like Dropbox, Google Drive, or AnyTrans. These apps allow you to transfer your videos from your iPhone to the app which in turn will sync them to the cloud and then to your computer.

Login to the app on both your iPhone and your computer, select the videos you want to transfer, and the app will take care of the rest.
